Re: Articulated arm vs Forklift style arm

This entire week my team and i have been designing and searching for ideas just like most everyone but we've found that watching the championship games from 2007 show some great bots with incredible designs that use the articulated arm with a claw and the forklift idea that was mentioned. We've pretty much settled on the arm idea but engineered our own claw. My suggestions would be to watch some videos and study up a bit. Also with the new updates that have been set into play could possibly help! Like for instance the 84' diameter now no longer 60'. So it might be somethin to consider maybe! Best of Luck to all!
